Today, Wednesday, July 7, 2010, is Ringo Starr’s 70th Birthday. For his birthday, Ringo asks that everyone — no matter where they are — flash the peace sign, and call out “peace and love”. You can read more about Ringo Starr’s birthday wish at the Liverpool Daily Post.

The DHPAC/Dix Hills Performing Arts Center community loves the Beatles. See a video of a recent Beatles show above. The end credits include local band Mostly Moptop performing Octopus’s Garden.

And, note that a lot of people at DHPAC/Five Towns College slip Beatles songs into their repertoire.
